Variegate porphyria in a 46-year-old patient taking sibutramine for weight loss.

Obesity reviews : an official journal of the International Association for the Study of Obesity - 1 Apr 2010

Reiser M, Eickmann S, Haverkamp T, Finckh U

Abstract excerpt

The acute hepatic porphyrias can cause life-threatening attacks of neurovisceral symptoms that mimic other acute medical conditions. Variegate porphyria caused by mutations in the protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPOX) gene is a latent disorder characterized by exacerbations induced by fasting, alcoho...
